3. Turn off water supply.

4. Cut a mounting hole 1 3/8 diameter (35mm) in the desired position in counter top or sink (if one isn’t available).

5. Place the rubber washer (5) over the base of the faucet. If your application has 3 holes to cover, install the base plate (6) and base plate gasket (7) over the holes and install the faucet. If your application is a single hole, the base plate (6) and base plate gasket (7) are optional.
   ATTENTION: T he base plate gasket should be sitting between the countertop and faucet base plate.
   DO NOT use putty or other sealant at this location.
   NOTES:
   Solid surface installation: The countertop mounting surface needs to be flat and free of debris otherwise the faucet may not sit properly. For tile installations, avoid installing faucet near or on top of grout lines. This may cause a weak joint between the faucet and the counter and could cause leaks.
